Barack hails from the most violent sections of Chicago, and he often petitioned for better housing, jobs and benefits for his constituents. He did not, however, lobby against the rampant crime in this area more dangerous than Baghdad. America's medium and large cities, all governed by Democrats, are nearly uninhabitable due to the lack of law and order. The mayors are Democrat. The city councils are Democrat, the judges and prosecutors are Democrat, so no real reform should be expected. The Democrats in power will not crack down on their crack smoking constituents. It would be political suicide.

Its hard to choose from thousands of violent crimes committed in Ohio's major cities to use as anecdotal evidence. The media does mention the emergency of the problem, as it would reflect very poorly on minorites. Congressional Democrats will not challenge the breakdown of law and order, because they have no interest in law and order, and they cannot offend minorities by pointing out the high crime rates

"(Cleveland, Ohio) Apparently, rape and sexual assault by mentally retarded juveniles are not crimes. From The Plain Dealer:A judge threw out the cases against three 15-year-old East Tech High School students after finding the boys mentally incompetent to stand trial on charges they raped a classmate. In April,the 17-year-old accuser told police and Cleveland schools officials that the boys - all special education students - raped and assaulted him at least three times. He said the attacks were in a second-floor bathroom, in a locker room and on the indoor track. A school janitor said he witnessed at least part of the third incident and reported it to his boss.

Cuyahoga County Juvenile Court Judge JohnGallagher did not rule on the validity of the allegations. He just summarily threw out the case because the culprits had low IQs. [& They are minorities]"

"CLEVELAND -- A local woman was found naked on a stranger's porch, bound and gagged with duct tape after she said two men kidnapped her and her baby at gunpoint, Cleveland News Channel 5 reported. Cleveland detectives are trying to figure why someone would put duct tape all over a 3-month-old baby girl and then leave her under a tree at Luke Easter Park."

As an Illinois State Senator governing Chicago's most dangerous Southside, Obama was able to see violent crime and especially homicides rise to record breaking levels (Over 700 murders in 1996, 1997, 1998) in his district. What, according to the record, did Obama do to quench the crimson tide of blood in the streets?

"As State Senator, Obama gained bipartisan support for legislation reforming ethics and health care laws. He sponsored a law increasing tax credits for low-income workers, negotiated welfare reform, and promoted increased subsidies for childcare. Obama also led the passage of legislation mandating videotaping of homicide interrogations, and a law to monitor racial profiling by requiring police to record the race of drivers they detained. "Wikipedia

Yet, Obama was never concerned about the hoodies in his district which had such a high crime rate.

Similar cities, owned by Democrats, have been terrorized by this same element and neither white nor black liberals value law and order in the streets or discipline in the home and school. Dems are shooting one another in great numbers in such cities as Cleveland, Youngstown, and Akron. Akron will not even submit the crime statistics to the FBI for evaluation. Its so bad here - and All Democrat

Killings, shootings, robberies, car thefts, and rapes are rising, and people are fleeing the big Dem cities - literally for their lives.

The Dems in the process of reprocessing American history and culture have hatched so many errant buzz phrases it is hard to keep up with them.

"Black people cannot be racist," has been the theme since I was at university back in the 1970's. After being subjected to such nonsense as well as other contrived liberal philosophies, I left the college forever. "Only white people can be racist," because "they have the power." However, minorities through affirmative action and their own industriousness have acquired power in universities, government, entertainment, sports, business and other realms - and they can hate just as well or better than a white person, as proven so dramatically by Obama's minister, Rev. White. The idea that African Americans cannot be bigoted has been generally accepted as law by Democrats, the authors of Illusive Language.

Obama and his wife have slipped up too many times exposing their contempt for America. They cannot be considered in any way patriotic, unless you would consider Benedict Arnold and the Rosenbergs patriotic.The great unifier of liberals, Barack, has shown this past weekend that he has more of an internationalist mindset than American. His statement, "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," proves that he would rather be subservient to foreign, United Nation and European ideals than American. Patriots do not love other countries more than their own. The United States should not be wasteful and neither should it be socialized/economized down to the level of its critic countries. If we were less prosperous, we could less afford to aid less blessed countries throughout the world.

The Democrat party, as a whole, should be called out for what they are - treasonous and unpatriotic. I am not buying that, "Its American to burn a flag," or "Show your love for the U.S. by spitting on a soldier," or prove your allegiance to the U.S. by bombing the Pentagon and stepping on the flag, as Barack's anarchist associate Bill Ayers has done. Democrat leadership has attempted every conceivable way to undermine American military endeavors since Vietnam. Gitmo, wiretapping international communications between terrorists, giving extra rights to war criminals, thwarting espionage, inhibiting the surge, and defunding the war have been just a few of the common tools used by Dems to deep six the war effort. Barack Hussein Obama can wear an American flag on his underwear all day and night , yet he should never, ever be considered a patriot. I wish the average Dem could see that everything the Dems touch turns to dung. Their energy non-policy is another case in point.

Barack is not a black man. One other example of the Dems Language of Illusion is the presumption that, "If a person has one drop of black blood in them, they are black." No, they are mixed, or mulatto and that is nothing to be ashamed of. Tiger Woods, Halle Barry, Vin Diesel, Mariah Carey, Keanu Reeves, Sean Lennon, are also mixed. How can they presume to choose one parent's race over another's to establish a single racial identity?

I understand that Barack may have had an identity crisis early in life. He had a black father who left him at the age of two with his white mother. Later, Barack lived for 7 years with his white granparents. That's OK, but why did Barack write a book about his African father who he did not know rather than his white grandparents who considerably cared for him, raising him at least in a middle class atmosphere, sending him to excellent schools, and, unfortunately, giving him allowances from which he could buy drugs? From Baracks' comments such as, [his grandmother] "was a typical white woman," it is easy to assume that he has experienced some shame about his whiteness.

Affirmative Action has also made it more lucrative for mixed ancestry people to identify with their blackness, while almost totally denying their whiteness. The egghead liberals, intellectuals, and college students certainly have it ensconced in their minds that blacks and other minorities, such as women, should be given extra, or affirmative, privileges in colleges, government jobs, and businesses which have government contracts. I even believe Barack has adopted his black preacher's speaking cadence so that he may more thoroughly shield his whiteness.

I also believe that Barack's "egghead" audiences have a self righteous pride proven by their loathing traditional American ideals, and loathing their own ancestry. This is also known as reverse discrimination and the egghead Democrat liberals love to expose and accuse others of bias for simply not loving Obama. They are educated and were no doubt commanded to believe this illusive language during their collegiate experience. Just as so much money has been thrown at universities for global warming studies, government has thrown even more money into affirmative action programs ( and Title IX) - especially into universities - thereby causing said schools to veer way left and eventually establish purely lib programs and associations, and hire only lib faculty and board members.

Diversity is one more oxymoronic term that may be found in the Dictionary Of Illusive Language. Diversity has never been the real goal of Affirmative Action, and has never been one of Obama's goals. It should be obvious.

Hollywood is buzzing over "investigator to the stars" private eye Anthony Pellicano, who copped a plea earlier this year after the FBI caught him with a drawer full of hand grenades and, in the words of one agent, enough plastique explosive to "take out a 747."

But Left Coast celebs may not be the only folks currently losing sleep over Pellicano - especially since news broke late last week that he had the habit of illegally wiretapping the targets of his investigations.Besides causing trouble for headliners like Tom Cruise, Michael Jackson, Kevin Costner and dozens of other stars, Pellicano's tapes could easily expose a certain political power couple to a new round of scrutiny, just as one of them sets the stage for a future presidential run.

Though the American press insists on not reporting this inconvenient detail, Anthony Pellicano was first hired by Bill and Hillary Clinton in 1992 in a bid to discredit Gennifer Flowers' steamy tape recordings of conversations with Mr. Clinton. As noted in Ron Kessler's 1995 best seller, "Inside the White House," "The Clinton camp made much of the fact that Anthony J. Pellicano, an expert on audio recording analysis, had told the press that a twelve-minute portion of the tape of conversations between Flowers and Clinton had been 'selectively edited' at two points."

To counter Pellicano's claims, Flowers submitted her recordings to Truth Verification Labs, which found them to be 100 percent authentic.In 1999 Flowers filed a defamation suit against Clinton campaign officials James Carville and George Stephanopoulos - along with then-first lady Hillary Clinton - based on their attempts to use Pellicano's analysis to discredit her.Arguing before the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals last year, Flowers' Judicial Watch attorneys tied Pellicano directly to the first lady-turned-New York senator, telling the court: "Anthony Pellicano was a private investigator hired by Mrs. Clinton herself. And he's the one who did the analysis of the tapes."The court ruled in Flowers' favor, allowing the lawsuit to proceed.

But that isn't the only time Pellicano has been linked to the Clintons.Four days after the Monica Lewinsky story broke in January 1998, ex-Lewinsky boyfriend Andy Bleiler came forward with the claim that she had stalked him. The Washington state school teacher also contended that Lewinsky wanted to become a White House intern so she could perform oral sex on then-President Clinton. "I'm going to Washington to get my presidential knee pads," Bleiler's lawyer, Terry Giles, quoted Lewinsky as saying."Anthony Pellicano, the L.A.-based private investigator and O.J. defense team veteran [was] responsible for digging up Andy Bleiler," the New York Post's Andrea Peyser reported at the time. Sexgate provocatuer Lucianne Goldberg told Peyser that Pellicano's services were bought and paid for by the Clinton White House.

When Peyser confronted the "investigator to the stars" with Goldberg's claim, he didn't deny it. "You're a smart girl. No comment," Pellicano told the Post reporter. Indeed, the tough-talking private eye makes no bones about his hardball tactics. He claimed to carry a baseball bat, not a gun, as his weapon of choice and once told the Los Angeles Times, "I only use intimidation and fear when I absolutely have to."

FAX TO SENATOR MCCAIN: DON'T LET THE GREENS TAKE YOU PRISONER

DEAR SENATOR MCCAIN: THANK YOU, FOR YOUR SERVICE IN VIETNAM AS WELL AS THE UNITED STATES SENATE. I WAS ALSO MEDEVACED OUT OF VIETNAM AND SPENT MANY MONTHS IN MILITARY AND VA HOSPITALS.

IF I MAY, SENATOR, I WOULD LIKE TO STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU KEEP ONLY THE SLIGHTEST OPEN MIND TO THE INCREASING DATA THAT IS BEING RELEASED ON A DAILY BASIS SHOWING THAT MUCH OF THE CARBON SCARE IS BASED ON COMPUTER MODELS THAT ARE VERY, VERY SUSPECT, AT BEST. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY FRAGILE ECONOMIC TIME FOR AMERICA'S ENERGY NEEDS AND SO MUCH OF AL GORE'S THESES ARE BEING RENOUNCED BY AN GROWING NUMBER OF SCIENTISTS - WHO ARE ALL BUT IGNORED AND SHUT OUT AS MERELY "FLAT EARTHERS."

AL GORE AND HIS MINIONS WILL NOT DEBATE THE ISSUE, BECAUSE THEY CANNOT DEBATE ANYTHING THAT WOULD QUESTION THEIR CARBON GRAVY TRAIN. MUCH (NOT ALL) OF THIS "CLIMATE CHANGE" MOVEMENT IS JUST A 'DOG AND PHONY SHOW' WHICH WILL CAUSE MANY ADHERENTS TO SUFFER DUE EMBARRASSMENT. PLEASE, STUDY SOVIET COMMUNISM'S LYSENKO TO COMPREHEND HOW EASILY JUNK SCIENCE CAN BREAK AN EMPIRE AND CAUSE WIDESPREAD MISERY AND DEATH.

YES, WE WOULD ALL WANT TO BE MORE EFFICIENT WITH OUR USE OF ANY KIND OF FUEL, BUT THE UNITED NATIONS, AS WELL AS AMERICAN ACADEMICS, AND MEDIA HAVE CARRIED THEIR MOVEMENT TO A LEVEL OF SELF-ASSURANCE THAT CANNOT BE JUSTIFIED SCIENTIFICALLY.

THE "GREENS" HAVE MOTIVES FAR BEYOND MERELY CLEANING UP THE ATMOSPHERE:THEY WOULD LIKE TO TAKE US CAPTIVE AND MAKE US PRISONERS TO A SYSTEM WHICH IS ILLBEGOTTEN, UNTHINKABLY COSTLY, AND RUINOUS - PROMISING TO TORTURE AMERICANS FOR YEARS TO COME.

Having not been able to undermine the Iraq War, the Democrat Party must concentrate on another strategy to win the White House. The Democrats must insure that gasoline will be even more expensive in November, and they must keep whispering "recession," despite not having the economic numbers which indicate a recession.

The Media can very well continue disparaging the American public, thereby forcing consumer confidence lower, even while there is no appreciable inflation.Recent good economic news must have caused some consternation in the Party of Carter, Dukakis, Clinton, McGovern and Mondale. The Gross Domestic Product, unfortunately for them, did not go negative for two succeeding quarters which would have defined a recession, and jobless claims were way below what were expected in April. Also saddening for them is that the general economic slowdown appears to be waining, and the sub prime mess is being arrested even as "The Great Depression Of 2008," does not seem to be getting a good start. Let's not forget the lib economists who forecasted 2001 as being the greatest slowdown since the Depression and their many NY Times Editorials which predicted "The Great Depression Of 2002, 2003,2004, 200x," etc.

Liberal doomsayers are having a difficult talking down the economy despite the constant barrage of biased-bad economic news from mainstream television, radio, newspapers and academics.

The Dems have been, however, very successful in forcing the cost of energy to rise through the years, and if timed just right, gasoline could approach 6 dollars a gallon by November and would all but insure a Democrat entering the White House in 2009.

The Democrat environmental wing of the party has been very patient in the past thirty years in their assault against energy production by means of making exploring, drilling, and refining domestic oil and natural gas all but impossible. Nuclear power and coal have been blacklisted for a similar amount of time.

They have inhibited the development of home grown energy sources such as nuclear, gas, oil and coal for the sake of "the environment," and more recently, "global warming." They constantly bash big oil and promote inefficient ethanol, while demanding that Bush do something about the price of gasoline. Democrats (and unfortunately too many Republicans) have fallen for the global warming hysteria which is just one more Democrat nail in America's coffin.

At one time, Democrats were very shy, believe it or not, to threaten higher taxes - if a Dem be elected. Nowadays, people like Obama and Hillary are promising a hike in taxes (not including Hillary's confiscation of Big Oil profits) as if it is a reward to low income earners, who already pay very little or no federal income tax. And for what reason would we want higher income earners/job-makers to pay over 60% top marginal tax rate ?Obama, having no rhyme or reason, for demanding such burdensome taxation, has given his deepest intellectual reasoning for higher than high taxes - "Its fair."

Even Bill Clinton had the good Democrat Party sense to promise that he would not raise taxes in 1992 while campaigning. He, of course, was found not be telling the truth and bragged after his election that his tax increase would be the highest in history. A Republican congress soon put the kibosh on Bill's taxation plan, but there may be no opportunityin 2009 to cut Obama's or Hillary's tax increases if the Republican Senate and House remain a minority.

As everyone else is either using the race card, or feeling insulted that others are using the race card in the Democrat primaries, there is only one way for Dems to prove they are not racist or sexist - vote for the all-man, red, WHITE, and blue John McCain.

When black Obama supporters are interviewed and asked why they support him, they respond 99% of the time that they will vote for him because he is black.

Similarly, most women deeply desire Hillary because she is a woman.

Break away from those racist and sexist stereotypes, Dems, and prove that you are looking for more than a person who shares your gender identity or race.OK, Barack is offering something more than his Africanness - he's offering Change.

To prove how fixated Dems are on electing a minority because he is a minority or a woman because she is a woman, notice what a leading black/female Democrat, Tony Morrison , who has played the gender and race card simultaneously many times during her career said about Bill Clinton in 1998:

"Morrison caused a stir when she called Bill Clinton "the first BlackPresident;" saying "Clinton displays almost every trope of blackness: single-parent household, born poor, working-class, saxophone-playing, McDonald's-and-junk-food-loving boy from Arkansas." Wikipedia

In 2008 Ms Morrison, after hearing Ol Black Bill making unkind statements about her endorsee, Obama, renigged on her earlier description of Bubba Clinton, and did a fancy two-step denial not unlike the Lone Ranger's Tonto who, while they were being attacked by Indians, shouted, "What do you mean we, white man?"

"People misunderstood that phrase. I was deploring the way in which President Clinton was being treated, vis-à-vis the sex scandal that was surrounding him. I said he was being treated like a black on the street, already guilty, already a perp. I have no idea what his real instincts are, in terms of race." T. Morrison - Wikipedia

Black or white, male or female, just another lame, ambiguous, awkward, and deceptive explanation for the inexplicable.

For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.After months of the repetitious drone on Obama's faith and ministers, why isn't it time that Hillary Clinton's faith be oggled? If Obama has been effected by Rev White and the Africentric gospel, what has motivated Hillary, spiritually?

Obama has confessed that he "prays to Jesus every night," and that he has attended church on many a Sunday morning.

The most I know about Hillary's spiritual life is that she has often addressed black churches from their pulpits proclaiming, "This is the day the lord has made...," (with a phony black-preacher cadence) and, "You know my husband, Bill, is Baptist." Early in the primaries, church congregants raised the roof shouting for Hillary. Hillary has stopped praising the Lord so much in the black churches more recently because, "Obama has that demographic."

So, what drives Saint Hillary? After doing a cursory search on the net, I could not find any church, denomination, minister or even spiritual advisor Hillary may be seeking for advice or at least fellowship. She has admitted to "hearing" from Eleanor Roosevelt, and has been spiritually guided by several New Agers including Jean Houston, founder of Foundation Of Mind Research.

Before checking the Bible to find any of Hillary's heroes, one should first consider the couple of men who convinced Hillary to switch from the old fashioned Methodism of her parents to the mod, liberation theology of the sixities: Saul Alinsky and Martin Luther King. They both drew traditional protestants and catholics into a Marxist sphere of "helping the poor," not through personal charity, but through vast, bloated, ineffective government programs which could more easily confiscate property from the "haves," and reapportion the funding to the "have nots." Obama has similarly benefitted from this rhetoric, which has the unfortunate consequence of fueling class greed and envy - not known as particularly Christian traits.

Bill Clinton employed lib evangelist Tony Campola for spiritual advice while in the White House. Tony Campola has not been known to be a believer in Gospel fundamentals.

I do have this blurb from as late as 2007 in which Hillary does profess to be a Christian: From gatewaypundit.blogspot.com"Hillary got a "surprise" visit from her Sunday School teacher from the Chicago area while she spoke in Donnellson, Iowa. (Screengrab-AP)It looks like Hillary's Jesus moment was likely another staged event for the Democratic front runner.The New York Daily News reported:"Clinton called on two audience members for questions, including Amy Fellows of Croton, Iowa, who asked, "Are you a Christian?"

"Yes I am," said Hillary.

"OK, that’s really important to me. God be with you," said Fellows.

"And also with you," the senator answered. "I'm often asked what are the biggest influences in my life and what are the important commitments that kind of keep me going — my faith, my family, my friends, my work. I used to get asked fairly often if I was a praying person. I said yes, I was raised going to church, I'm a Methodist," she said to applause. "I'm a very grateful and committed Methodist."

Fellows told our pool reporter (Pat Healy, for the curious) later that she was not a part of the Clinton campaign and that the question was not planted.

"Having a good Christian in the White House is very important to me," she said, adding she was leaning strongly towards Clinton, but didn't know very much about John Edwards or Obama, including their religions or the brouhaha over Obama's faith and Kerrey's comments.

Also among the 200 people at the Donnellson firehouse was Rosalie Bentzinger, who was the director of religious education Hillary's First Methodist Church in Park Ridge, Ill. She gave Hillary a picture of her confirmation class from March 22, 1959."

Hillary may very well be a practicing Methodist which is one of the most liberal mainline denominations out there. I do not suppose a Progressive Methodism would mind being confused with a Marxist. I am also not sure how one could follow Christ and live with Methodist doctrine simultaneously. Here are just two reasons:

The United Methodist Church began in the early 1970s to view abortion as a "choice". The United Methodist position in favor of abortion has been so strong that two of its institutions helped organize and affiliate with the Religious Coalition for Abortion Rights. For many years RCAR used office space in the United Methodist Building which is located across the street from the U.S. Supreme Court. In both 1996 and 1997 the United Methodist Church publicly supported President Clinton's veto of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. While the 1996 United Methodist Church's Book of Discipline still maintains a strong pro-abortion position, it now includes wording recognizing the "sanctity of unborn human life." It further states, "We cannot affirm abortion as an acceptable means of birth control and we unconditionally reject it as a means of gender selection."

On HomosexualityAnd Abortion" The UMC has lost two and a half million members since 1965, a decline of 24 percent. The denomination, with thirteen seminaries and almost a hundred affiliated theological schools, runs the largest seminary system in America - none of which are devoted to traditionalist Wesleyan doctrine. A school which teaches Wesleyan doctrine to the exclusion of other ideologies would not be accredited by the University Senate, whose guidelines state: "The United Methodist Church is theologically diverse; there is an expectation that UMC seminarians will be exposed to a variety of theological positions current within Methodism."

"Similar to other mainline denominations, the UMC is divided over the issue of homosexual affirmation. At the national level, however, the issue has essentially been decided. Essentially all church agencies and seminaries openly support "gay" rights. The Director of Recruitment at the denomination's flagship UM seminary - Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington - is a leader in the UM homosexual inclusion movement."

Note: President G W Bush has admitted to being a Methodist, but he has far more times professed a faith in God and the delivering power of Jesus Christ. I have not heard such specifics from Hillary. Does she think it will hurt her union voters? Offend Catholics?

Hard to tell with Hillary because she could have been an improv actor. She has the extraordinary ability to spout off anything that may gain popular support at any given time without thinking of the consequences. A queen of ad libbers. Very contrary to what the Bible says about being "slow to speak."
